"Okay, enough talking. Let's eat quickly. After dinner, read a book and then go to bed. The exam is approaching, so don't stay up late, okay?"
"We listen to our grandparents."
"Good boy! By the way, I brought a lot of things from the capital this time. They were all prepared by your aunt. Have you packed them up? Take out everything edible."
"It's all packed up. Let's eat tomorrow. We spent a long time cleaning up this afternoon. Mom and Dad, this is too much."
"Yeah, I've said too much, but your sister must have said that it's not sold in the county, and she's afraid that we'll lose out. This kid is just too concerned about us."
"My little sister has always been very filial. Are they all okay? How's Xiaoyu?"
"They're doing very well. They've moved again and bought a farm that's pretty much the same size as the one in the village. It was built by the governor. Now the whole family lives on the farm and it's very nice.
Lei Zi is also very diligent in his studies. The whole family stays at home most of the time and rarely goes out. They will be back for the New Year, when Xiaoyu will have finished her confinement."
"Come back for the New Year, we will definitely prepare a big gift for the children."
"Of course, she's pregnant. Xiaoyu is a well-behaved child, not fussy at all. She just vomited for a few days before Chinese New Year. I think her pregnancy is going smoothly this time, and the birth will definitely be even smoother."
"I hope my sister and her family are doing well. I heard there will be an imperial examination this year..."
The old woman rolled her eyes at her son and said, "He's only been studying for a short time, and you still expect him to pass the imperial examination? Why don't you just go to heaven?"
"No, mother, I just said it casually."
"You can just say that? Oh, by the way, have those people who picked river gourds with me come to the county town? I heard that some of them are going to take exams this year too."
"Here they are. We had a gathering a couple of days ago. The Zhao family didn't seem to see them. I wonder where they've gone to live this year. Are they here?"
The old woman really felt that her son had no tact at all. "What does it have to do with me whether they come or not? Can you please stop mentioning them to me?"
"My son is wrong. I'm not good at talking. Mom and Dad, please eat quickly. I won't talk anymore, okay?"
He thought his parents would be curious about the Zhao family, but they actually treated them as dead.
His mouth...
On the Zhao family's side, Wang was extremely anxious.
"Boss, when are we going to the county town? The exam is coming up soon. We can't go on the same day, right? Why aren't you anxious?"
Who said he wasn't anxious? He was so anxious, wasn't he?
It’s not that he hasn’t found a good place to live. He goes to the inn every day to reserve a room, but it’s always full. What should he do?
You can't just sleep on the street, right?
Needless to say, these people are all students taking exams and will not check out until they finish their exams.
"Don't you see me going to the county town every day? I have no place to stay. There are only two inns in the county town, and they are both full. What should I do? Can I give birth to a child and give him a house to live in?"
Wang was impatient. She had said that she wanted to book a room earlier, but the head of the household said that it would be a waste of money to go early. The inn would raise the price at this time. Wouldn't there be much money to stay for such a long time?
Their home is close to the county town, so there is no need to go there so early.
What about the knot?
There is no house now, no house!
People won’t keep empty rooms waiting for them to live in!
"Tell me, what should we do? The village chief and his family have a house in the county town, but will they lend it to us? He accepted the Xu family but not us. His intention is not clear enough.
The third brother is not home, and our house is rented out. What other options do we have now besides staying in an inn?"
Speaking of Zhao Dashu, Zhao Dawen's eyes lit up. "The third brother is dead, but the servants are still here. I'll go ask the housekeeper if I can open the door and stay for a few days."
Wang was at her wit's end. She really wanted to beat Zhao Dawen to death.
"Hurry up and go!"
The housekeeper is not stupid, how could he possibly give out the house key? He has to give it today and return it tomorrow. Doesn’t that mean the house that grandpa bought with his own money has changed owners?
